Mars is a nonbinary illustrator-author located in the Pacific Northwest working primarily on book covers, character design, and graphic novels. They'll never say no to drawing space, trans & queer rep, or unreasonably detailed swords. When not drawing, they can be found in the depths of an astrophysics documentary marathon or posting pictures of their cryptid dog on Instagram.


For personal commissions, pre-order campaign/character cards, self-published covers, and other non-publishing contract work, please contact Mars via email. Please only contact their agent if you are a publishing entity offering contract publishing work.
